Either Big Brown wins this race by 10 or Dutrow is completely out of his f'ing gord.

If so, then the MLS is equivalent to NFL Europe....

I am a huge soccer fan and haven't watched more than 15 minutes of an MLS game. It is unwatchable.

ALL the speed is from posts 17-20 with the lone exception of Bob Black Jack.

It is going to be one bizarre looking break from the starting gate.

Dutrow is (a) a genius for knowing the break won't be as rough with only someone to his left or (b) he thinks he has the greatest horse since Secretariat (c) a sick f*ck who knows he'll get a point more odds with that post!!!

i guess it doesn't matter that much, he had a high draw anyway and he has the speed, so might as well increase your chance of a clean break by taking the outside.

Yeah, but symbolically, it's a ballsy move. He said post position wouldn't matter, so he takes what many believe to be the most difficult post.

Why not take the 2 with the complete lack of early speed from the horses in 3 and 4?

I agree with that statement, he has such a big long stride and bad feet, you'd hate to get stepped on or blocked in the early going, but damn 20 is wide...

Especially when the inside was available. You know the three horses immediately to his left are going to gun, why even take the chance?
